It's coming...

Summer is winding down and fall is on the way! Fall and winter are my favorite seasons, but I'm a little wary of what might be in store for us this year on the East Coast. Our spring was wet and cold, and this summer has been very mild--only a week or so with temperatures in the 90's, but quite a few days we didn't even reach 80. I've actually been able to open the windows a few times. Does this mean we'll get walloped with blizzards this winter? Nobody knows, but I do know that fall cannot get here fast enough for me!

How about a pumpkin?

This is JBW's French Country Pumpkin stitched with Crescent Colors Colonial Copper. I have one more project I need to whip out and then I can start on Halloween! Stay tuned!

    Did you stitch that in a spiral?! It looks *awesome* how the colors darken on the way to the outer shell.

    And I hope your winter is not brutal... our summer has been!

      Nope, just wandered around and stitched the next closest bit. The lengths I was using had a distinct light end and a dark end, so I did start with the light end if the last bit I had stitched was light (and vice versa) but other than that, I didn't do anything special.

      Nifty! Why I love the hand dyed stuff that has a lot of variation.

    Fall has always been my favorite season. Love the beautiful colors and the crispness in the air. I've done a lot of fall pieces in the past, but would love to do a couple more that I've been saving.
